The 2005 Design Problem
Design a light fixture to light an 8’ wide exterior
pathway in an urban
park. The park is in proximity to the ocean, in a relatively
mild
climate where it sometimes snows in the winter. The light fixture
needs to illuminate the path as well as provide security. Consider
the issues
of safety, glare, light trespass and light pollution when
designing your fixture.
Also consider the issue of identification of
people and surround. Your fixture
should use high efficiency
sources, such as compact fluorescent or metal halide
lamps, or
LEDs. The ballast should be integral to the fixture. Self-ballasted
lamps and other retrofit lamps are not acceptable. Identify all major
interior and exterior components and materials. Describe how your
fixture
addresses the environment and task.
